    <p>- Is the election process not outlined in your Bylaws? The San
      Francisco Bay Area Chapter, for example, has the requirement for a
      Nominating Committee (NomCom) that oversees the election process
      and must consist of at least one person who is not on the Board of
      Directors (see <a
        href="https://www.sfbayisoc.org/election-process/">https://www.sfbayisoc.org/election-process/</a>).
